Glossary

Knee walls are vertical walls with attic space directly behind them. They are often found in houses with finished attics.

These walls are notoriously leaky and often uninsulated.

For energy efficiency, a knee wall and the attic floor in the attic space behind it should be properly insulated and air sealed.
